Geocache Description:

This is the final cache in the Periodic Table of the Elements powered trail.

The new name Oganesson (Og) for element 118 (Uuo) was announced on 8th June 2016. Experiments conducted at Dubna at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions (by workers from the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Russia and the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, USA) indicate that element 118 was produced. Not much though, one atom in 2002 and two more in 2005. The 2002 experiment involved firing a beam of 4820Ca at 24998Cf. The experiment took 4 months and involved a beam of 2.5 x 1019 calcium ions to produce the single event believed to be the synthesis of element 118 as the 294118Uuo isotope.   Source: Webelements
